Urban Roots Movie

I went to another movie event by transition town Uppsala. They organize a movie event every first Thursday each month at 18 in Biotopia, so if you are interested in joining keep an eye out for information on their webpage.

This time we saw the movie Urban Roots that explained how people in Detroit have taken to urban gardening and farming when the local economy and auto industry collapsed. It's interesting to see how they are building a more resilient community and how people are helping each other out trough these initiatives. If I have to say something negative about the movie, it was a bit too long but it got more interesting towards the end. All in all a good movie if you want to get inspired and learn about Urban farming/gardening!

About this blogg

As I got more and more interested on the subject of environmental issues and started studying Environmental Management and Economics, I decided to start up this blog as a reminder for myself on small things I can do for the environment or get better at and also a place I can save links and things I find interesting.

I am now done with my studies in Sweden and live on the Finnish countryside in the South of Finland working for a local food company (check the "about me" page for more info)
